    Hi all, I've got a (stupid) question but I can't find the solution... I wanna edit the permission in a public folder (and its subfolders) for one user in Office 365 via PS. The problem is that user (ex. Pippo@domain.com) has more rights in that PF... He is PublishingEditor in the home folder and in the second level, from the third level he is PublishingAuthor... and if I use the command:

    Get-PublicFolder –Identity “\PF_Path” –Recurse | Add-PublicFolderClientPermission –User Pippo@domain.com -AccessRights PublishingEditor


    I receive a list of errors "An existing permission entry was found the user Pippo". The cmdlet fails both in folders where Pippo is Editor and folders where he is Editor, without ipdate the existing permissions.

    I can't find another cmdlet for do this update, any suggestion is welcome.

    Bye, thanks a lot.

    Hi,

    So you want to configure AccessRights:PublishingEditor for user Pippo on one public folder and all subfolders in it? If yes, then try the following steps:

    1. Remove all permission on that public folder and all subfolders for user Pippo:

    Get-PublicFolder \PF_Path -Recurse | Remove-PublicFolderClientPermission -User Pippo@domain.com -Confirm:$false

    2. Re-add permissions:

    Get-PublicFolder –Identity “\PF_Path” –Recurse | Add-PublicFolderClientPermission –User Pippo@domain.com -AccessRights PublishingEditor -Confirm:$false

    Best Regards,

    Try removing all rights for that user then add back the ones you want.
